Welcome to Wrenfold

Honey-coloured stone, deep window seats, and absolutely nowhere you need to be.

Wrenfold was a wool merchant's house in 1640 and a tumbledown farmhouse by 1990. We spent four patient years bringing it back: lime plaster, reclaimed oak, a proper range, and linen you'll want to take home. The village pub is six minutes' walk down the lane.

The house

Built for long breakfasts and longer evenings.

A range-warmed kitchen that seats ten, a sitting room with two fires, a boot room for muddy dogs, and a walled garden that catches the last of the evening sun.

“The kind of quiet you forget exists. We didn't drive anywhere for five days and didn't miss a thing.”

Sam & Priya · stayed in March

“Every detail considered, nothing overdone. The dogs have asked if we can move in.”
